In order to obtain the best fuel consumption results, Ford offers the SE Manual EcoBoost Package which provides underbody shields, low-rolling resistance tires, a rear spoiler and side air deflectors.

“The fuel economy rating not only establishes the Fiesta 1.0-liter EcoBoost as best-in-class, but it also outperforms some competitors’ diesels and hybrids on the highway driving cycle,” claims the carmaker.
